Possi le applications
Heating systems with manifold
arranged close to the boiler. The boiler
water flow is required to be reduced.
Please note:
This circuit diagram represents a
recommendation only. It is the
responsibility of the customer and/or
the heating contractor to check that
this recommendation is complete and
fully functional. Three-phase equipment
must be connected via additional
power contactors.
When the return temperature falls
below the required minimum value,
the temperature sensor T2 switches
on the shunt pump. If the minimum
return temperature is not reached
despite raising the return temperature,
the flow must be reduced by at least
50% via the temperature sensor T1.
The shunt pump must be sized so that
bypassed water accounts for approx.
30% of the total flow rate of the
boiler.
Temperature sensor T1
Wiring of the temperature sensor
T1 in heating systems with heating
circuit control units which are not
connected via the LON BUS to the
boiler control unit.
Coding required: ” C : 2” – use
plug sÖ for closing the mixing
valves of the heating circuits
connected downstream.
sÖ A1 Close mixing valves
AContactor relay, field supplied
BHeating circuit controls
connected downstream
Switch contact closed: signal
for ”close mixing valve”.
Availa le system accessories

plug aJA;
Coding ” A: 1” is set automatically

Wiring diagram
Wiring of the Therm-Control in heating
systems with heating circuit control units
are not connected to the boiler control
unit via the LON.
Required coding:
Change “ C” to “2” - use the plug-in
connector 20 A1 to close the
downstream mixing valve. Change “0D”
to “1” - the Therm-Control acts on the
mixing valve of the downstream heating
circuits (for Vitotronic 200 and 300,
delivered condition).
